A 43-year-old asymptomatic male patient with a positive stress myocardial perfusion imaging result was admitted to our institution. Although no organic lesion was detected by 64-row coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA), invasive coronary angiography revealed a unique anatomy with a long lesion in the middle of the left anterior descending artery. Optical frequency domain imaging (OFDI) demonstrated the details of the recanalized occlusion with coronary dissection. OFDI provides in vivo coronary images with high spatial resolution and better three-dimensional reconstructions and supports invasive coronary angiography to elucidate infinitesimal and complicated intraluminal morphology that might be missed by CCTA alone.
